| External DAC For Oppo 105 At What Cost? Hi Seikosha, If I'm ever a little bored/curious I'll do that and give the Oppo its straight shot. I'll let you know. Best, | |
| Signal Cable REL cable vs Speakon Custom REL cable When I first bought my Rel Stadium 2 almost 15 yrs ago I swapped the stock cable for the Signal Cable and noticed a faster, cleaner, deeper extension and was pleased with the improvement to cost ratio. I have also played with power cords ranging f... | |
| External DAC For Oppo 105 At What Cost? Forgot to add FYI the Lampizator ranges from about $5K - $6K depending on options. | |
| External DAC For Oppo 105 At What Cost? I bought an Oppo 105 to use as a coax digital output to feed a dac. Can't say what the difference was/is because I haven't bothered using it on its own...I wanted to know it was (supposed to be) good all alone in case I felt like giving it a try s... | |
| oppo 105 vs 103 I needed a new transport for my Dac but didn't want to go with a "Pure transport" only [for flexibility purposes] so I debated between the 103 and the 105. I first picked up the 103 then shortly afterwards decided I wanted to have the music-making... | |
| Best reasonably priced power cord for lamm ll2 I have had very good results using Triode Wire Labs (TWL) cables on almost any piece of source component or amp or pre-amp combinations that are inherently either essentially neutral or somewhat biased towards a leaner,"Accurate" persona. They add... | |
| Bryston Announces NEW BDP-2 / BDA-2 Hello Kclone, I'm glad you're enjoying the new BDA-2, I have no doubt it has to be great, considering its predecessor... I have already pulled the trigger on "The other one" and am awaiting delivery soon so I will do a personal comparison between ... | |
| Bryston Announces NEW BDP-2 / BDA-2 I have loved the sound of my BDA-1 since I bought it new a couple of years ago...it is everything that the audio rags have stated and my system took full advantage of it. On that note however when I heard and read about the BDA-2 I decided to sell... | |
| Looking to Upgrade my CDP Reviews say the Oppo 105 is a giant killer but it's out of your price point at $1200. I was looking for a transport to feed (via Spdif coax) my new Lampizator 4 L4 Dac so I went with the $500 Oppo BDP-103...it's supposed to be well built and full ... | |
| Any experience with Arc ref75 driving magnepans I know someone who drives Apogee Duettas with the new Ref 75...he says it is an absolutely glorious amp in so many ways and handles them quite well. I would say if it drives them, it will drive your Maggies [as long as the room isn't especially la... | |
| Alternate Power Tubes for a Cary V12R I will have to check the manu date, I'm pretty sure it's probably a later model (I have the "F 1" "Formula One" updated Special Edition with the Jensen Copper in oil caps and Cardas wiring as well as ??? other little stuff and a silver faceplate w... | |
| Alternate Power Tubes for a Cary V12R I have a 280 V12 R and also love the EL-34's. I have used EH KT 88's which are certainly more extended top and bottom but we all know do not have that magical midrange and I've also run SED Winged "C" 6550's which are somewhat of a compromise betw... | |
| Ayon Skylla II vs Lampizator 4 or 5 I too was looking for a new dac...I borrowed a friend's Lamp4 Gen4 and thought it was excellent: big wide layered stage with natural analog ease. I sold my good value and very nice sounding Bryson BDA 1 and ordered a brand new Lamp4 Gen4 also. I c... | |
| API Power Wedge 1 line conditioner ? I had it and its successor then moved on to MIT Z-Center...each was an improvement but they were all good units in their day; (API especially, considering value for the $$$). On retrospect, there was probably some degree of dynamic limiting and it... | |
| Anyone ever think about building a dedicated room? Man caves...especially a pure audiophile type...will put any marriage to the test. The more fanatical you are to the cave - the more struggle you will have with the relationship. Heed the advice; it's true. You may want to wait awhile, as per abov... |
